(But he can teach you the tarot, this Saturday January 30th from 2:30 to 4:30)

The participants to this introductory workshop to the Tarot de Marseille’s visual language will receive a copy of the recently released Jean-Dodal deck, restored by Jean-Claude Flornoy. The deck includes Enrique’s methodology to look at the cards. In this workshop, Enrique brings the tarot up-to-date by contrasting an understanding of Medieval draftsmanship and current cognitive science. This is not your grandma’s tarot! No memorization, zero superstitions, no weird symbolism nor occult shenanigans; but the foundation for a life-time practice on how to use images to catalyze a conversation with yourself or with others.

Price: $120 (members of the Society for Martial Arts will receive a discount)

Here is where being a snob is a problem. If I were to do something like that I would liked for it to be good, not just the result of someone happening to own a video camera who would come and take a shot at me. So, the whole thing gets more complicated.

Last year I tried to have a good video producer involved in something like that, but he wasn’t available. This year I may try again.

Hello Enrique.
I am sure your workshop will be a success!
Also the idea of teaching tarot in a Martial Arts school is suggestive: what about taromachia?
BTW, I am not sure you are so snob, since you share with us so much of your insights on an internet forum: definitely not an elite medium

I am happy to report that we had a great time. All of those who attended to the workshop were mesmerized by the Dodal’s beauty. It is always amazing to see people ‘seeing’ and discovering the infinite symmetries the cards have among them.
